Located in the heart of Memphis’ historic downtown, the 110-room hotel was built in 1905 as the Tennessee Trust Bank building. The building’s long history includes time as an office building, the cosmopolitan Madison Hotel, and its newest iteration, Hu. Hotel. The recent revitalization of Memphis, combined with the city’s gritty soul, has made The Bluff City a popular travel destination. Hu. Hotel channels the spirit of the man who inspired its name. Equal parts magnate, women’s health advocate, and ascetic who helped introduce yoga to the West, Hugh “Hu.” Lawson White Brinkley was a man as ambitious and visionary as the delta in which our city resides.

The Hu hotel is managed by Aparium Hotel Group, which was founded in 2011, driven by the belief that all hospitality experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings, Aparium was born with an intense focus on unearthing the amazing moments unique to every city. Since its founding, Aparium has grown into a new kind of hotel brand, one that ventures off the beaten path, both geographically and philosophically. It is a sophisticated hotel brand known for its singular ability to combine the business acumen of large hospitality companies with the charm of boutique hotels, bringing disparate forces together in bustling, smaller markets.

You are a perfectionist by nature and know that anything worth doing is worth doing well. You are someone who doesn’t settle for ordinary, and have an aversion to blasé service, knowing that effort and spontaneity are the alchemy for the extraordinary. You are genuine, yet polished, and aren’t afraid to venture outside of the norm and do things differently. You obsess over the details (the Science) and presentation (the Art), striving to create an experience that surprises and inspires. You relish the opportunity to be part of the distinctive soul of a unique hotel, where your creativity and passion are appreciated, supported, and expected.

The Ambassador role is not a front desk receptionist hiding behind a desk, generating paperwork, and swiping credit cards. At Hu Hotel, the Ambassador owns the guest experience, ensuring that no need goes unmet and no opportunity to make a guest’s visit special is missed. The ambassadors are exquisite hosts, just as comfortable arranging the details of a surprise proposal, as they are giving a hotel tour to a curious neighbor or maneuvering a bell cart. The Ambassador knows the ins and outs of both the hotel and the surrounding community, and with a gracious demeanor and warm presence makes every guest entering the lobby feel at ease, knowing that they have selected the right place. This position turns details and tidbits about guests into recognition and actions that make a stay at Hu Hotel a personal, one-of-a-kind experience.

As an Equal Opportunity Employer, Aparium Hospitality Services celebrates diversity and is committed to creating an equitable and inclusive environment, and sense of belonging for all employees. We do not discriminate and believe every individual should be proud of who they are, where they come from and take pride in who we serve.
